i think the protesters have died in vain and that the world
will have forgotten about all this in less than a month.

faith and corruption are man's worst enemies.

Are they hooligans or are they revolutionaries?

The iranian government does seem very oppressive atm

you know, trying not to sound rasist, i simply don't care
about all those south-european-north-african-middle-world
whatever countries and especially not the islam ones. those
guys are born with their heads fucked and are probably the
most violent people i know. so seeing them shooting each
other and ranting isn't really something i would call "above
average". those elections where just a valve for them. don't
bother - they will throw some rocks for a couple of days
then they will be exhausted and go home watch television.
until the next elections.

What do you mean?

I'm just saying that Sarkozy and Merkel calling for Iranian
authorities to stop repressing protesters is pretty
laughable :)

I think it's all been engineered by Twitter to bolster its
apparent importance as a News Medium. I think the fucking
BBC are in cahoots with them as well.

last night i saw iranian policemen catching a men in a
road, then two women approached the police and take the
men to the protesters side... easly.
I see that iranian police are not prepared to heavy
rioting.
i'm shure that killings are perpetrated by those
simultaniously: police, cia and protesters

Forget it. Thought is destructive and only concerned in one
thing, it's own continuity and survival. Every act is a
selfish one. As long as thought exists, it will manifest
itself in division, hate and violence.

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to

But nothin comes out when they move they lips
Just a buncha gibberish
And muthafuckas act like they forgot about Dre

sounds like you did too much study on game theory. as if
every human act comes from a rational form of selfishness.
yeah right, like every action is a well thought/rational
one. sure. how much thought did you put into that?

I'm not criticisng selfishness, it's inescapable. In 99.9%
of situations, every action you take is precipitated by
thought - there is a clear division there. Thought is the
contaminant.

I'm not saying altruism does not exist full stop - some
other animal species display altruistic activities (although
perhaps its not fully uinderstood why), but in the
overwhelmingly vast number of situations, human actions
cited as altruism are in fact selfish actions. That may be
subtle, even incomprehensible to the person who believes
they are being altruistic, humans are skilled at deluding
themselves - thought is so cunning in that way.

that delusion works in both ways. like when you say that
99,9% of actions are precipitated by thought. that's a
delusion in and of itself right there. the free-will you
think you have, is not nearly as free as you perceive it to
be. there's lots of evidence that indicates that "thought"
is merely an after product of the mind. an after product
with the function to create a unified state of mind, as
opposed to a non-unified state of mind as seen in severe
cases of schizophrenia. call it speculation, but the same
holds for: Thought is destructive and only concerned in
one
thing, it's own continuity and survival. Every act is a
selfish one. As long as thought exists, it will manifest
itself in division, hate and violence.


your delusion is more right than mine, of course

Get on with your own life until it comes to your doorstep.
Then get a big fucking machine gun, and defend your family.

Or go and start a revolution and see where that gets you.
